As well as a written aid for the production of our music video we also need a visual aid so that we can get an idea of what our video will look like when produced and also gives us a guide when we're creating as to how each of our scenes should look. In order to ensure the storyboard we produced features all of the correct information that we need to guide us through out production, I have carried out some research and analysis into existing, professional storyboards...
Professional Storyboards
With this particular storyboard, the sketches are generally quite detailed and therefore provide a good idea of what each scene will look like. Although the storyboards don't look like they have much detail, they feature enough information to direct the scene by including a camera angle and the camera movements. Each box on the storyboard tells a little bit more of the video and makes it easier for the director to see what the producer wants to create.
Each cell on the storyboard should feature certain pieces of information from the camera movements to the scene numbers. For example this particular cell is named as frame number 2 and includes the camera directions, the shot type, the camera directions and the camera settings. By working out all the different directions through the planning stages of the video, it makes the production of the video quicker and more accurate whilst also allowing a third party to have an understanding of what the video will be like.
Although this storyboard is slightly unconventionally laid out, this storyboard for a music video contains over 50 different cells that include an image of the particular scene, the scene number, the camera angle and the camera movements. The storyboard is also set out in order of timing and song verse. By having the video set up like this its much easier to follow throughout the production of the video therefor making it more organised and therefore allows the process to run more smoothly.
